Doing Democratic Duty

August 17, 2009

There is a vote to be cast tomorrow. My MLA jumped parties and had to resign, now there is a fierce contest between the also rans for the second place - There is no ADMK in the fray and the ruling party wins 90% of all by elections. This would be the last time i vote in this particular constituency (a huge rural one, where suburbs like ours are immaterial) . In the next election, reorganization kicks in and there will be brand new seat to vote for - a smaller one made of suburbs.
